SNMPGETNEXT(1) Net-SNMP SNMPGETNEXT(1)

NAME
       snmpgetnext  -  communicates  with  a network entity using SNMP GETNEXT
       requests

SYNOPSIS
       ssnnmmppggeettnneexxtt [COMMON OPTIONS] [-Cf] OID [OID]...

DESCRIPTION
       ssnnmmppggeett is an SNMP application that uses the SNMP  GETNEXT  request  to
       query  for information on a network entity.  One or more object identi-
       fiers (OIDs) may be given as arguments on the command line.  Each vari-
       able  name  is given in the format specified in variables(5).  For each
       one, the variable  that  is  lexicographically  "next"  in  the  remote
       entity's MIB will be returned.

       For example:

       snmpgetnext -c public zeus interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.1

       will retrieve the variable interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.2:

       interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.2 = softwareLoopback(24)

       If  the  network  entity has an error processing the request packet, an
       error message will be shown,  helping  to  pinpoint  in  what  way  the
       request was malformed.
